Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2008-5618 low priority: Debian including 1 source packages (rsyslog), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.
imudp in rsyslog 4.x before 4.1.2, 3.21 before 3.21.9 beta, and 3.20 before 3.20.2 generates a message even when it is sent by an unauthorized sender, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via a large number of spurious messages.
